If we determine that orthodontic treatment may be necessary, we will help you learn about orthodontic treatment options. We understand that each patient’s orthodontic treatment is different, and we promise to give your child the personal attention they deserve. Your child’s first orthodontic visit will consist of an examination and discussion of potential treatment options. This important visit will address their orthodontic needs to determine if this is the proper time to begin treatment.

If orthodontic treatment is indicated we will collect our planning records. After we have evaluated your child’s records, we conduct a treatment consultation to explain all aspects of their treatment in detail. We will provide a complete clinical diagnosis regarding the nature of the problem, a written summary of the findings and a detailed plan that outlines treatment, goals and estimated fees. We encourage questions from both the patient and the parent, and as such, we provide ample time to answer those questions.
